Greg, I have not interest in moving to any kind of web UI. I want to send another millions of emails, including those "+1". I think we all agree that any kind of migration must not disrupt way we work today - a plain mailing-list we all know and use for decades.
Thanks for decreasing it. I still have concerns about the non-standard special per-thread address way of replies which I get. How do I start a new thread via email? Can I do that, can't I?
